It is wonderfull! Your so cute!!:smile2:

Yay Cutie!! That is cool!

I have been MIA too :smile:

Just realised it has been over a month since I've been on.

I haven't been losing for a while now (but at least I'm not gaining). I am around my sweet spot and finding it is hard.

I was overfilled, had the 1cc taken out....had 0.5cc put back in and I still am slightly too full! I have been feeling really uncomfortable eating after only a couple of mouthfuls. And that is eating slowly. I was not eating much at each sitting which was causing me to get hungry in between meals.

I had another 0.25 ish cc's taken out today.

We'll see how I feel in a few weeks. though I just had lunch and it went down great.

So fingers crossed it will be enough this time!

Ro! I was wondering where you were at! Glad you checked in. Sorry you've been having such a hard time. :smile: Sounds like you might be okay now. Hang in there and STAY IN TOUCH!!!

Hi Ro and cutie!

Nice to see you both back and posting!

And thanks for the visitor msgs you left me. I'm fine and recovering, but am still coming here to check on how everyone's going.

I'm hopefully getting refilled today because I'd gained a kg (3lbs) while i was unfilled and I suspect even more since then, and I really want to 'get back on the wagon', so to speak.

So it would be nice having my pals here to catch up with!

Ro, I'm sorry it's been such a tough time for you finding the 'perfect' spot for you. I hope with all the tweaking they're doing, they'll hit on exactly the right combination!

Lellow! You're back! How did surgery go?

You're my hero! I can't believe you've only gained 3lbs! Are you sure it isn't from surgery? Hope your fill goes well. Take good care of yourself!

heartfire, no it was definitely weight and not post surgery swelling. :( They weighed me just before I went in for surgery so I know it's all from being unfilled and eating more than I should have in the preceding week.

Though I imagine I've put on even more since then. After the op, my PS insisted that until I got refilled, that I was to eat 'heartily' so as to aid my recovery, so I have been tucking in without guilt. I figured that once I'm refilled (hopefully today) it's time to take it seriously again, but the week right after having major surgery was probably not the best time to worry about my diet. Plus, I'm swollen so I look about 4 months preggo, and so I imagine the scales would not be kind to me right now!

But now I'm ready to get my band working again and get back on track. I've made a promise to my DH that I will not weigh myself for at least a month (so not til the 1st of May) so as to allow the swelling to go down a bit. You know how obsessive I can be about numbers!!

So while losing almost 8lbs of skin, but then gaining wieght while unfilled, I'm hoping that on the 1st of May, I'll have stabilised at my 'official' goal weight of 154lbs, if not less. If I can achieve that, I'll be ecstatic.

Onederland and a body lift sound like a dream to me! You all are really an inspiration for me. I know that I can do it because I see that other people are doing it!

I will get there. My doctor really likes slow weight loss (I know I could be more determined to make it go faster on my own) so things have gone slower for me but if I don't make onederland by 7/4 (Independence Day in the US) then I definitely want to be there by my first anniversary (which is the goal approved by my doctor). I really want to do better than that because then it will leave 50 lbs for me to lose in the second year to be at goal by my 2nd anniversary (another one of my doctor's goals).

Keeping reaching for those GOALS!

Lellow~ Glad to hear the surgery went well and you are back! I bet you can't wait for the swelling to go down and get a look at the new you!

I am watching the scale and finding that 193 will not go away, not up, not down - just the same. I think it has been at least 5 weeks! Soooooo frustrating!!!

It's hard to believe the 200s ever existed at this point. I will never see that number again thanks to my sweet band. Yippee !!!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
